IMPRISONMENT FOR CONTEMPT.
IMPRISONMENT FOR CONTEMPT. A SCESB IN THE Fi,F.ET-pnisolq.-Interlocutorsl, Mr Veller and a ColMer. (From the PichicicJt Papers.) He was a sallow man—all cbhlers are; and had a stron.- bristly bt:ard-all cobblers have; his tuce was a queer, good-tempered, crooked featured ()iece of workmanship, ornumented with a couple ot eyes that must have worn a very joyous expression at one time, for they sparkled vet. The lTIan was sixty by years, and Heaven knows how old by imprison- ment, so that his having any look approachln to mirth or contentment was singular enoug.b. He was a little man. and being half doubled up as he lay in bed, lookedabout as long as he ollght to have been without his legs. He had got a great red pipe in his mouth, and was 'smoking and staring at the rushlight in a state of enviable placidity. "Have y011 been here long?" enquired Sam, bi-eakiiit, the, silence %viiieli had lasted for some time. Twelve years," replied the cobbler, biting the end of his pipe as be spoke.

And this is God's truth, without one word of sup- pression or; exaggeration, as fifty people, both It) this place and out of it, very well know." The cobbler paused to ascertain what effect his story-had produced upon Sam but finding that he had dropped asleep, knocked the ashes out of his pipe, sighed, put it down, drew the bedclothes bvsfr his head, and went to sleep too.

Lewis Kuight, Esq,, at Cutnbiiilgej and i well worthy the serious perusal of the friends of the law, as administered by the Triumviri of Somerset House One word on the subject of the New Poor Law. His right lion, opponent professed to 4ie extremely desirous of seeing an alteration and amendment in the present system; but they should observe, that the Act of Parliament (lid not contain any of the obnoxious provisions which had beeu so much com- plained of: they were only to be found in the regu- lalion made by the commissioners and sanctioned by the Goverunu-ut. There was not a single provision ofwh ch the poor complained,and which had excited "o much attention and indignation throughout th< country, which was not immediately the act of the Government. (Cheers.) The commissioners were empowered to make certain rules allrt regulations, which |he Government might sanction or relnse to sanction, and the Government to which his right hou. opponent belonged had sanctioned every one ot those regulaiions which operated so harshli upon the poor, and against which the couutry was now rising as oae man. (Cheers.) If that Govern- ment now chose, every one ot tho-e regulations might instautly be withdrawlI; the severity coin- plained of'did not originate in the Act pf Purliamenti, it rested with the Government and the power givef to the commissioners, who were uuder iheir control. (Loud cheers ) His rig-ht hon. opponent had told them. he was anxious for inquiry; well, the Govern- ment had recently appointed a committee to in- vestigate the subject certain questions were prot- pospd in that golillitittee, and he would read to. them the result, as appeared iu the report. The first poi,iit %vas tiki. )Iolioii made and question prot posfd, that the following resolution be inserted ia the report That the discretion allowed to magistrates of ordering out-door relief (o dgqd per- sons shall be extended also to the amount <d the relief so to be giveit it vas carried against the improvement by 13 to 1. (Cheers.) Another question was t h ¡, Thai the officiating clergyman in every parish be cx-ofticio a guardian;" that was carried against the improvement by 12 to, 1.— (Cheers.) Another question was this, That out-j door relief shall be administered at the discretion of the guardians." This involved the whole of the oppression and misery, which had been intlicted upon the jmor, the separation of husband and wife, of parents alld children, the confinement of the aged labourer and widow within the wa.ls of the work-t house, even in the <;rave—all arose from the denial iif oui-doot- relief, but that question was also pan ried iu the committee against the improvement by, 12 to I.-—(Cheery.)- So much with respect to attera- tioiis or improvements in the system itself; now witll regard to the time to be giveu to consider the report. It was wished, by a strouji advocate fdr an alleviation of the Poor Law, that time, should be allowed to consider the report, but even that refused. This was the question,—Motion made,, that the report be read aseeoad, iime amendment: proposed to leave o.ut the words after 'that' in order to, iusert t he f'ol!owiiiiz-lil)edfauzht ot* the report tiow-reati be printed, for.the purpose of, affording the members of the committee an op-j portuuity of examining it before they are called (H": to vote foe its adoption or rejection.'

He had seen and spoken to every electot- and he ask d them, did he attempt to exercise any undue influence arising out of iiis property? (Loud] cries of" No.) Were there not many of his tenants on_C^!ain Towneend's committee ? (ilear hear.) Did rrbt many voters telihhu during his canvass that they had promised Captain Townsend their votes? and had promised Captain Townsend their votes? and was it not invai-idbty his observation in all itch coses, I liave nothing more to say; for God's sake keep your promise." (Cheers.) He readily ad- mitted that if his agents had exercised undue influ- ence, that would be precisely the same as if he had exercised it himself; hut this he could with truth say, that it any voter being a tenant of his had been threatened or -ttb,-n teed by any of his agents or by any other person, it had been done not by his direc- tions, but in tlie teeth of his wishes and his express instructions. (Cheers) Yet he must say, that, though he highly respected the independent exercise of a votel. lie could easily believe thit tenants of his, knowing that his principles were Conservative, knowing that he had acted by them Jllstly and fairly as a landlord,, were desirous of call- suiting his wishes and of giving their votes in such a 'oauuer as should best sirpport the principles which, he always avowed, and by which he meant to abide. (Applause.) But he positively denied that I any menaces had beet, employed toward- any tenant ot his by directions give" -by him. (Cheers.) He asked for the name of a single tcnaui of his who had been menaced with injury on account of the free and iudelleudeiJl exercise of his suffrage ? If the electors of that borough bad thought that he sought to uu- dermine its independence, would 387 out of 444 who polled have voted for him? (Cheers.) Would Mr Parsons have voted for him if he entertained Isch an impcessj,),, ? (Hear, hear.) No; but he | had received the support 01 that gentleman and of j many others, because he had faithfully adhered to the1 pledges-he gayej and he defied any man with trut^ifo rt tbe contrary. (Applause.) Who, let JhiiH tsk, was. Mr Reppingion ? Was he not the one who Ted the opposition to the Peel family in 1818,aud wW be not one of the most determined opponents to i lbe attenipt, to place: two- members of the same tfamily in the situation of representatives of the borough? When, then, a greal body of intelligent ,andleet;Oectable voters came forward in favour of Capia;n A'Court, was it not fair to suppose that they selected that gentleman because he was the heir to the property of the individual who had fought for the independence of the borough ? '(Great applause.) He (Sir R. Peel) did not of .course, mean to bind himself to keep in possession of his tenement every tenant who was objectionable jon other grounds' besides his politics; but this he declared in the face of the whole population, that if any tenants of his had been menaced on account of the free exercise of their independent privileges, they had been menaced without his authority, and contrary to his wishes (hpar, hear); and if be step- ped forward he should hear from him (Sir R. Peel) that day that he should receive protection in the exercise of his Independent rights, aud should on that account receive no injury from his landlord."

-:II'M- THE NEW THRONE-—The new throne, upon which her iVIaje-ty has lately received several addresses, has been fixed in the Palace. It is a most magnificent piece of furniture, and does great credit to the skill and taste ot the upholsterers, who furnished all the state rooms of Buckingham Palace. The plalform upon which the gorgeous chair is placed, is sixteen feet long by let), and raised three steps from the floor. It is covered with crimson velvet I'ile carpeting, over which a canopy is suspended eighteen feet iu height, decorated with the rose, thistle, and shamrock, interwoven with foliage, and surmounted with a beauti|ul!y-Carved crown and cushion. The drapery is composed of the richest crimson velvet, of JJnglish manufacture, lined with lutestring of the same lone. The, testpr is composed ot velvet panuelled, with a broad oak-leaf and acorn gold luce trimming, with a massive gold rope. Si- milar decorations are used 111 forming the drapery .of (he inside valance. T he valance 011 the outside is Of a different design, and is trimmed with two rows ofgold lace, and finished with a deep gold fringe, ilk curtains, which aie exceedingly fu!|) are finish- ed in a similar manner, and are looped up with a gold rope and tassels, the whole torming one of the most^^eauiiful structures imaginable.

The weekly,average circulation of the Bank for the three months ending on the 27th Ju»e, was 18,202,000, and by the abeve returns, £ 18,201,QUO, being all increase of £ 59.000- The deposits at a former period averaged .^10,424,000, and by th present return, £ !0;t>72,0()0, being all increase of ^"248,0f)()i The seenri-ties at the former period were < £ "5!5,932,000, against £ <50,727,000, showing a decrease dmiug the last mouth et The bullion during the first period averaged £ 4,750,010, and by the present return^ £ 5,226,000, being an increase during the past month of 470,000. Finally the surplus, or rest, as it is tecbnieirfly denominated, was at the first period, ^3,050,000, and by the present return, 113,020,000. being a diminution of £3(j,OOO, li is scarcely necessary to nnserve, that where the bulhoii is inn state of rapid transition, as it evidently is at present the mode of making the returns oil all average of the preceding thirteen weeks, conveys a very imperfect idea of the actual nmouutjn possession of the bank. For example, at the present moment it irtiisf very considerably exceed ihe average piven in the above return The pur- chase of bullion is an uoprofUable operation for the- chase of bullion is an uoprofUable operation for the- bank, and it is, therefore,^desirable for the moneyed interest strictly to watch their proceeding's at a crisis like the present, as,they ave always anxious, as far as the market will bear it, to issue notes against the tiilllion. It is quite evident from the present return that they have not disposed of their Government Securities in proportion to their bullion purchases, and it is more than probable that this is not an unifoportant element in creating the redundancy of money in the metropolis.

NORTHERN CIRCUIT, YORK.—FRIDAY. The trial of Gamble, the engineer on board the Union sleain packet at Hull at the period of the late explosion, terminated abruptly last night. It wat; expected that it would have occupied the greater port of two days, but oil the more important part of the evidence for Ihe prosecution being goonpthroogh, the jury expressed an opinion tll falolll. of the, prisoner; and it appearing that the additional evi- dence for the prosecution was merely corroboratory of that which hnda)ready been given, a verdict of; Not Guilty was, under these circumstances, returned. The prisoner was put upon his trial for manslaughter on the coroner's inquest, the grand jury having thrown out the bills. There was some dtiffccence of opinion amony the. scientific witnesses as to ihe,immediate cause of the explosion. Some fl[jfre..o.f•opinion that the expansive force 9te-, steam was sufficient- to account fit- it while others Supposed.that it must have been pro- j duced by the ignition of ,-as.in,itie boiler, which had been tjetteraied by allowing'he water to get too low, and lite fluRiAo fiecorne red hot.
